How to Pair Blush with Bold Lipstick

Pulling off a bold lipstick isn’t always easy and it can be even harder finding a blusher to pair it with that doesn’t make you're look like your joining the Cirque du Soleil! I had always feared the dreaded clown look, so up until recently steered clear of bold lipsticks. But bold lips and a subtle touch of blusher on your cheeks can be a winning combination. It can enhance your lipstick colour and stop your skin from looking washed out and I have found the perfect product...

Rimmel's Lasting Finish Soft Colour Blush in Santa Rose may appear uninspiring in the pan, but this blusher adds just the right amount of colour, whilst defining those cheekbones. The shade is a natural, matte, soft, dusty rose with a brown undertone. This inexpensive blusher’s packaging may be a little shoddy, but the lasting power, buildable pigmentation and finish makes it the by far the most complimentary shade to wear with any lipstick colour. It’s hint of colour won’t leave you looking like a clown, or like your wearing a shed load of makeup, it’s simply perfect. And the best part? It won’t leave you out of pocket, costing just £3.99.
